These wins that get posted on social media including this forum are one in a thousand or more. The rest of them are losing the bets. If everyone was winning the bets, the casino would go bankrupt, but that never happening, we all know that.
Hence by showing one big win, it does not mean that the next bet is going to be another big win. Maybe even the person who made this bet won big after a long line of losses and it is possible that they money they made on this one still does not break even the cumulative losses till date.
My point being that gambling can be a win for some, if so cash out and never come back - but for most people it will be a loss and the casino will always be the winner.

He must be a lucky person with good skills in Sports betting because risking that amount is not as simple for normal gambler and yes with that huge multiplier .
he may have more of this kind winning because sportsbet needs skill and yes a better understanding to which game and what team you are going to bet.

it maybe a small amount to risk but as you said with that so ow odds? he must be a true gambler to put that amount.
he may have more of this kind winning because sportsbet needs skill and yes a better understanding to which game and what team you are going to bet.
What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?
A lot of people will not mind risking $18 to win $18k, that is a steal of a bargain. What will discourage most is the odds of that game being successful, those odds are so low and to win you have to rusk ~$18 over and over again which will total to a lot of money and you still might not get lucky.- Jay -
This requires little skill and huge luck.
It isn't about stats because he was betting against the usual stats of a player, but a win is a win, actually a big win.
As for me, I doubt I would be able to risk $18 for that bet builder with x1000 odds, that's too risky, but the winner here , he got some balls to to take a high risk bet and it paid off.
We are just jelous now bro, hehe.. but we cannot win if we don't follow the winner's patch.
The result of the bet I think is a combination of experience of the person the gambler as well luck because it's very rare for someone to actually win this big in sports betting with this kind of prediction. The winner actually went to far at the rate of he took in this particular bet which I think it'll be very difficult for a random gambler to follow suit but at the end, he was rewarded with huge win which now makes sense to everyone.It isn't about stats because he was betting against the usual stats of a player, but a win is a win, actually a big win.

That would be a millionaire if he stops gambling,I remember some guys who had a small IT devices shop and they were selling computers and laptops,all was going well with them as they were some acquaintances of mine until one day they started gambling.They started with small amounts in the beginning until they build a balance,a good one and they started playing with over 1000 dollars bets and got further and further until one good day they lost it all and this to say that you can never become a millionaire over the long run with any type of betting.
One thing I've learnt about gambling is that there are two ways it triggers gamblers to gamble uncontrollably. Firstly is when they're losing in gambling and when they're winning in gambling and the failure for gambler to regulate his activities during these periods simply leads him to gambling addiction. This person has already won big in gambling with this kind of reported win but if he further tries to bet on similar games with same strategies he used in winning this big, he might not be lucky again like he the recent winning and that might trigger him to gamble more thereby losing all his money 
Yes gamblers keep trying it betting continuously and sacrificing money then winning, does this look easy?
Of course it looks easy and anyone who sees every winning bet slip will think that betting is easy because they just give up money and win, but they don't think about how much money they have spent in continuing to try to bet.
A gambler who can really understand the systematics of gambling well will consider winning as just return of everything they have previously lost because they know they don't gamble just once or twice.
I often say that every win is not completely an advantage to make money because there is always loss before or after the win you get.
He was lucky to have that win with only small bet of around $18 but he would go back to betting again and no one knew whether he would win or lose and I sure the next bet would be with bigger money because he believed he could get more.
I would say that winning is truly refreshing gain if he can stop gambling completely so that in the future there will be no more losses.

You don't win if you don't try, this gambler for sure kept trying on playing "bet builder", probably even on "parlay", and finally one day he made himself a millionaire. This is a significant success already as not everyone can win a huge amount in gambling, considering the bet was only less than $20.
What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?
It is easy to say, "You won't win if you won't try," but it's crucial to be mindful that success often involves taking risks. Another consideration is that not everyone can afford to risk around $20 on gambling. While it's acceptable to encourage people to bet for the possibility of winning, we should also consider individuals who might be persuaded to place bets despite not being able to afford the potential loss of an $18 bet.
Moreover, I'm curious about whether the user was able to withdraw these funds. The outcome seems unusually high compared to the bet amount. Yes, I understand it's a bet builder, but I find it hard to believe that a casino offers such high payout for a 'small' stake.
On a personal note, I would be willing to bet the amount if I had the opportunity to win a high payout. In fact, I've been searching recently, but I can't find any bookmakers that provide such high payout even trying to do the bets on parlay or bet builder.
I just saw this betslip shared by someone on social media and he was bragging that he turn his builder bet to Php 1 million pesos or equivalent to over $18k.
The bet is only Php 1k or ($18)... see the bet slip below. (check the outcome to see the winning)....
So you see, those who are preaching that you can't win in gambling, this is for you!

Do you have any single idea that fellow has lost to gambling before making that win? Besides nobody said you can make wins like this through gambling, I've seen even more bigger victories, but the question remains, do you see these wins everyday? I believe you know the answer, you rarely see these kinda wins, and to make this much, you'll need to be a high staker. So another question is, how high are you capable of staking and how much risk are you capable of taking. Chasing this kinda win is exactly what has ruined most gambler's life

This is just one story of one individual succeeding in gambling, we have other stories of many individuals not succeeding. We can't use only one story to conclude that you can become a millionaire. If the same story is happening frequently then we can conclude. When gambling, the house is always at an advantage meaning more players will lose to the house so gambling isn't as profitable as this story is making it to look like, readers shouldn't be deceived.
Gamblers can make profits when they play games but they shouldn't depend fully on gambling as you can win some games and lose some other games. It's very rare to win millions and also more rare to use small wagers to win life changing money as the example is trying to justify. When gambling try to make sure you're winning more games than you're losing and staying in profits, winning millions in any currency isn't always possible but you should be making profits.

Just wondering who are those people saying not? If they don't believe that this one would provably happen to them then what's the point of betting? Even if the chances to get those win but its still have a chance to happen. Remember we bet to take those chances and the person you told us here is one of the proof that its really possible to win and became a millionaire if you are in Philippines.
For question if I can risk $18 or more for a chance to win $18 also more than that then yes. That's why we gamble to hit that prize so for sure will do that since that's what people usually aiming for since imagine how many things you can buy with that money if you hit a huge luck for betting on sports betting sites.

People can achieve success in anything if they try but bet can be different because bet is totally dependent on luck. There is nothing wrong with taking risks, but success does not come from taking risks. Here, if I could have made $18,000 with $18 guaranteed, I would have deposited $18 for the bet. The uncertainty here is that if I take $18, that $18 can be gone in an instant. So I would never try to get $18,000 for $18 in this game of uncertainty. Because my luck is not very helpful when it comes to betting. What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?
Everyone gambles to make big money with little money some day, if gamblers don't believe why are they gambling? The difference is some people are desperate to become a millionaire using gambling, and some just have a hope that they will win good amount so day, and they do this the safest way.
There is nothing to worry about if your mind believe that you can get lucky one day in gambling, you only have to keep gambling is a safer manner, using what you can afford to lose, that's all..
Been reckless and irresponsible is what results in addiction, and also big loses that people aren't prepared for, I really don't want to become a millionaire in gambling, I just want to make some gains using my luck is all, I've never dreamt of winning million in gambling, congrats OP if that's really your win, I hope you manage that well or even channel the money into something better.

If I don't believe that I can win millions from gambling, I wouldn't be gambling. There's a difference between hoping to win and being so desperate to win. You have to understand that gambling needs luck, no matter how good you are, you still need a bit of luck to win in gambling.
The amount a person should be willing to risk shouldn't be the question, the question is how much is that amount you're willing to risk worth to you. $100 may mean nothing to me person and that same $100 may mean a lot to another person. You can't take an amount that's so much more that you can afford to lose to gamble with the hope that you'll win the bet. It ends up badly most of the time.
When people become so desperate to win or keep trying to win back their losses, they end up being addicted to gambling and that is a bad place to be.
When we say gambling portfolio and the percentage of using the gambling portfolio, we never check the total amount invested in each game but only the percentage is taken into account.
Usually, i will go with a rule of risking 1% of my gambling portfolio in each game and bet. So if I have 100$ in my gambling account, i will gamble each game with 1 dollar. Similarly, if i have 1000$ in my gambling portfolio, I will gamble every game with 10$. So in both cases, even if I lose a game, I will lose one percent of my gambling money.
So you see, those who are preaching that you can't win in gambling, this is for you!

The truth is that what worked for others may not really worked for another person and we know that in gambling nothing is certain for sure and the possibility of wining is not also guarantee so even if we saw many people wining from there gambling bet doesn't necessarily mean that if someone venture into it they will surely win because gambling doesn't work that way, I'm not disputing the fact that gambling can make someone a millionaire overnight but my point is that it entails luck sometimes before someone could win that big, because I have seen someone who is every experience in gambling but finds it very difficult to win. You don't win if you don't try, this gambler for sure kept trying on playing "bet builder", probably even on "parlay", and finally one day he made himself a millionaire.

Although one of the things I like about gambling is that when you win sometimes you win big so i believe that's one of the reasons why most people prefer to risk high so if eventually they win it becomes very huge. So for me I don't think I can risk that big in gambling because in as much I may feel that the bet is very certain i will win but reversal could be the case so I don't think I can risk that high but however if I have a lot of money that removing that amount will not affect me of course I can decide to try it out.

That would be a millionaire if he stops gambling,I remember some guys who had a small IT devices shop and they were selling computers and laptops,all was going well with them as they were some acquaintances of mine until one day they started gambling.They started with small amounts in the beginning until they build a balance,a good one and they started playing with over 1000 dollars bets and got further and further until one good day they lost it all and this to say that you can never become a millionaire over the long run with any type of betting.
One happened in my country. The man's father do not have money but he inherited a plot of land from his father, he sold it to send his child to a white nation to work. He worked for 5 years and came back home to start a business. It was a good business. One day, he saw a friend and they become close again and talked about gambling. After his friend introduced him to gambling, his business stopped to be going on as it was because he used all the money to gambling and lost all and his business died.The one that happened recently just like three months ago happened in my street to someone that I know. He is a guy that is selling meet in the street. I did not see him selling meat again. I asked people the reason. They said he has used his money to gamble and he lost. It pain me.

So what do you think we will do here? I mean, we have this gambling discussion section to talk about gambling, why not talk about success sometimes rather than talking about how to prevent losses and how to avoid being addicted in gambling?
This gambling section is here to encourage people from gambling, not to discourage them... and the fact that you are wearing a signature for a gambling site, that alone is already a way showing people your support on the gambling site you are working with.

The thing is this event will not always happen to all people who gamble's, we don't say that you can't be rich in gambling its just it will not always happen, or let's say there is 100% that you could earn something like that or hit a jackpot, that's what we called a once in a life time turning point, wherein instantly your status in life could changed, no one says here that you can't be rich in gambling what they say is there is a "possibility" but doesn't have a "guaranteed", you could flex something like that just to justify that gambling could lead you to wealthy life instantly, enough giving false hope and false dream to the other gamblers that could urge them to gamble more hoping to attained such achievement because it can never happen to everyone. I don't want to spoil the fun or badmouth gambling, as I do gambling too, but I don't give everyone the idea that winning such huge amounts of money will be very easy. "You don't win if you don't try." That phrase could lead hoping gamblers to their misery, I'm not against gambling its just I don't want someone hyping the gambling and making sounds like pushing others to gamble more until they reach their goal, what if it never happens? will you keep on playing even if you don't have the means? The bet is only Php 1k or ($18)... see the bet slip below. (check the outcome to see the winning)....

If you talk about losses, gamblers will still gamble. But the one that read about losses can know that they should just use the money they can afford to lose to gamble. If you talk about the success, more people will gamble recklessly until they finally understand after several losses.This gambling section is here to encourage people from gambling, not to discourage them... and the fact that you are wearing a signature for a gambling site, that alone is already a way showing people your support on the gambling site you are working with.
You are right about this, but I see gambling board more as a way to also be educated about gambling. Education about what not to do and what do do. Jump to:
